Chapter 14. The CGI.pm Module
In addition to the form-generation methods, CGI.pm also includes methods for generating HTML output. The names of the HTML output methods generally follow the HTML element names (e.g., p for <P>) and take named parameters that are assumed to be valid attributes for the tag (e.g., img(src=>'camel.gif') becomes <IMG SRC="camel.gif">). We do not list the HTML generating methods here, although the HTML element reference in Chapter 13 provides you with element names and attributes that are for the most part recognized by CGI.pm. See the CGI.pm manpage for complete information, or the book Official Guide to Programming with CGI.pm by Lincoln Stein (John Wiley & Sons, 1998).
